Schwan’s USA CUP is sanctioned by US Club Soccer. US Club Soccer is a non-profit organization committed to the support and development of competitive soccer clubs.  It is founded on the belief that soccer clubs, which are in the business of elite player development, need an organization of their own to foster growth, address concerns, and sanction and provide programs with a minimum of rules and restrictions.

Schwan's USA CUP is sanctioned by Minnesota Youth Soccer Association.

 

The Minnesota Youth Soccer Association promotes the game of soccer for all youth in Minnesota. We promote the importance of education, self-esteem, diversity and teamwork in a safe, fun environment, allowing players to develop to their fullest potential in soccer and in life.
